Collection Title:	1/3, 2/3, and 3/3: Sequencing Autism Spectrum Disorder Extended Pedigrees
Collection Investigators:	Gerard Schellenberg, Hilary Coon and Ellen Wijsman
Collection Description:	We have in hand a unique resource of extended autism spectrum disorder (ASD) pedigrees. We will sequence family members from the most informative pedigrees to study genetic variation contributing to ASD and related phenotypes. We will work to discover new variation, and also use the resource to characterize variants in conjunction with existing whole exome data available through our collaborations. We will test findings in up to 10 other families available from the Autism Genome Project (AGP) network of collaborators. We will also make the resource available to the broader scientific community. Extended families offer an excellent opportunity to identify and study genetic variation, giving a complementary approach to ongoing studies of simplex and small multiplex families. The current collection of families represents some of the largest pedigrees with ASD in the world. We have already detected significant linkage evidence in some of these families with clinical diagnosis and also with related phenotypes. Sequence data in these extended families will result in highly accurate and complete genetic information. We will identify familial variation in these data, and predict potentially damaging variants using new informatics approaches. We will refine information about risk by comparing to ongoing sequence projects. We will also use the ongoing sequence projects to help prioritize the familial variant discovery, and choose the best for replication efforts in other AGP families. Finally, we will investigate sequence variants found by simplex/small family sequencing to determine specificity and penetrance in our extended families. Our proposed project will benefit from the continued collaboration of world-class molecular, analytic, and clinical expertise in the Autism Genome Project to enable the most effective use of this unique resource.

Clinical Trials

Collection Status: The visibility status of an NDA Collection. Collection Status can be Shared or Private. Collections in Shared status are visible to all users and can be searched in the NDA Query Tool. Private Collections are not visible to NDA users. The Status of an NDA Collection only affects the visibility of information about the Collection (metadata) and does not relate to the status of the record-level research data in the NDA Collection.

Collection Phase: The current status of a research project submitting data to an NDA Collection, based on the timing of the award and/or the data that have been submitted.

Pre-Enrollment: The default entry made when the NDA Collection is created.
Enrolling: Data have been submitted to the NDA Collection or the NDA Data Expected initial submission date has been reached for at least one data structure category in the NDA Collection.
Data Analysis: Subject level data collection for the research project is completed and has been submitted to the NDA Collection. The NDA Collection owner or the NDA Help Desk may set this phase when they’ve confirmed data submission is complete and submitted subject counts match at least 90% of the target enrollment numbers in the NDA Data Expected. Data submission reminders will be turned off for the NDA Collection.
Funding Completed: The NIH grant award (or awards) associated with the NDA Collection has reached its end date. NDA Collections in Funding Completed phase are assigned a subphase to indicate the status of data submission.
- The Data Expected Subphase indicates that NDA expects more data will be submitted
- The Closeout Subphase indicates the data submission is complete.
- The Sharing Not Met Subphase indicates that data submission was not completed as expected.

Blinded Clinical Trial Status:

This status is set by a Collection Owner and indicates the research project is a double blinded clinical trial. When selected, the public view of Data Expected will show the Data Expected items and the Submission Dates, but the targeted enrollment and subjects submitted counts will not be displayed.
Targeted enrollment and subjects submitted counts are visible only to NDA Administrators and to the NDA Collection or as the NDA Collection Owner.
When an NDA Collection that is flagged Blinded Clinical Trial reaches the maximum data sharing date for that Data Repository (see https://nda.nih.gov/nda/sharing-regimen.html), the embargo on Data Expected information is released.

Funding Source

The organization(s) responsible for providing the funding is listed here.

Supporting Documentation

Users with Submission privileges, as well as Collection Owners, Program Officers, and those with Administrator privileges, may upload and attach supporting documentation. By default, supporting documentation is shared to the general public, however, the option is also available to limit this information to qualified researchers only.

Grant Information

Identifiable details are displayed about the Project of which the Collection was derived from. You may click in the Project Number to view a full report of the Project captured by the NIH.

Clinical Trials

Any data that is collected to support or further the research of clinical studies will be available here. Collection Owners and those with Administrator privileges may add new clinical trials.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the NIMH Data Archive (NDA) determine which Permission Group data are submitted into?

During Collection creation, NDA staff determine the appropriate Permission Group based on the type of data to be submitted, the type of access that will be available to data access users, and the information provided by the Program Officer during grant award.
How do I know when a NDA Collection has been created?

When a Collection is created by NDA staff and marked as Shared, an email notification will automatically be sent to the PI(s) of the grant(s) associated with the Collection to notify them.
Is a single grant number ever associated with more than one Collection?

The NDA system does not allow for a single grant to be associated with more than one Collection; therefore, a single grant will not be listed in the Grant Information section of a Collection for more than one Collection.
Why is there sometimes more than one grant included in a Collection?

In general, each Collection is associated with only one grant; however, multiple grants may be associated if the grant has multiple competing segments for the same grant number or if multiple different grants are all working on the same project and it makes sense to hold the data in one Collection (e.g., Cooperative Agreements).

Glossary

Administrator Privilege

A privilege provided to a user associated with an NDA Collection or NDA Study whereby that user can perform a full range of actions including providing privileges to other users.
Collection Owner

Generally, the Collection Owner is the contact PI listed on a grant. Only one NDA user is listed as the Collection owner. Most automated emails are primarily sent to the Collection Owner.
Collection Phase
The Collection Phase provides information on data submission as opposed to grant/project completion so while the Collection phase and grant/project phase may be closely related they are often different. Collection users with Administrative Privileges are encouraged to edit the Collection Phase. The Program Officer as listed in eRA (for NIH funded grants) may also edit this field. Changes must be saved by clicking the Save button at the bottom of the page. This field is sortable alphabetically in ascending or descending order. Collection Phase options include:
- Pre-Enrollment: A grant/project has started, but has not yet enrolled subjects.
- Enrolling: A grant/project has begun enrolling subjects. Data submission is likely ongoing at this point.
- Data Analysis: A grant/project has completed enrolling subjects and has completed all data submissions.
- Funding Completed: A grant/project has reached the project end date.
Collection State

The Collection State indicates whether the Collection is viewable and searchable. Collections can be either Private, Shared, or an Ongoing Study. A Collection that is shared does not necessarily have shared data as the Collection State and state of data are independent of each other. This field can be edited by Collection users with Administrative Privileges and the Program Officer as listed in eRA (for NIH funded grants). Changes must be saved by clicking the Save button at the bottom of the page.
Collection Title

An editable field with the title of the Collection, which is often the title of the grant associated with the Collection.
Grant

Provides the grant number(s) for the grant(s) associated with the Collection. The field is a hyperlink so clicking on the Grant number will direct the user to the grant information in the NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools (RePORT) page.
Supporting Documentation

Various documents and materials to enable efficient use of the data by investigators unfamiliar with the project and may include the research protocol, questionnaires, and study manuals.
NIH Research Initiative

NDA Collections may be organized by scientific similarity into NIH Research Initiatives, to facilitate query tool user experience. NIH Research Initiatives map to one or multiple Funding Opportunity Announcements.
Permission Group

Access to shared record-level data in NDA is provisioned at the level of a Permission Group. NDA Permission Groups consist of one or multiple NDA Collections that contain data with the same subject consents.
Planned Enrollment

Number of human subject participants to be enrolled in an NIH-funded clinical research study. The data is provided in competing applications and annual progress reports.
Actual Enrollment

Number of human subjects enrolled in an NIH-funded clinical research study. The data is provided in annual progress reports.
NDA Collection

A virtual container and organization structure for data and associated documentation from one grant or one large project/consortium. It contains tools for tracking data submission and allows investigators to define a wide array of other elements that provide context for the data, including all general information regarding the data and source project, experimental parameters used to collect any event-based data contained in the Collection, methods, and other supporting documentation. They also allow investigators to link underlying data to an NDA Study, defining populations and subpopulations specific to research aims.
Data Use Limitations

Data Use Limitations (DULs) describe the appropriate secondary use of a dataset and are based on the original informed consent of a research participant. NDA only accepts consent-based data use limitations defined by the NIH Office of Science Policy.
Total Subjects Shared

The total number of unique subjects for whom data have been shared and are available for users with permission to access data.

Collection - Shared Data

This tab provides a quick overview of the Data Structure title, Data Type, and Number of Subjects that are currently Shared for the Collection. The information presented in this tab is automatically generated by NDA and cannot be edited. If no information is visible on this tab, this would indicate the Collection does not have shared data or the data is private.

The shared data is available to other researchers who have permission to access data in the Collection's designated Permission Group(s). Use the Download button to get all shared data from the Collection to the Filter Cart.

Frequently Asked Questions

How will I know if another researcher uses data that I shared through the NIMH Data Archive (NDA)?

To see what data your project have submitted are being used by a study, simply go the Associated Studies tab of your collection. Alternatively, you may review an NDA Study Attribution Report available on the General tab.
Can I get a supplement to share data from a completed research project?

Often it becomes more difficult to organize and format data electronically after the project has been completed and the information needed to create a GUID may not be available; however, you may still contact a program staff member at the appropriate funding institution for more information.
Can I get a supplement to share data from a research project that is still ongoing?

Unlike completed projects where researchers may not have the information needed to create a GUID and/or where the effort needed to organize and format data becomes prohibitive, ongoing projects have more of an opportunity to overcome these challenges. Please contact a program staff member at the appropriate funding institution for more information.

Glossary

Data Structure

A defined organization and group of Data Elements to represent an electronic definition of a measure, assessment, questionnaire, or collection of data points. Data structures that have been defined in the NDA Data Dictionary are available at https://nda.nih.gov/general-query.html?q=query=data-structure
Data Type

A grouping of data by similar characteristics such as Clinical Assessments, Omics, or Neurosignal data.
Shared

The term 'Shared' generally means available to others; however, there are some slightly different meanings based on what is Shared. A Shared NDA Collection or NDA Study is viewable and searchable publicly regardless of the user's role or whether the user has an NDA account. A Shared Collection or NDA Study does not necessarily mean that data submitted to the Collection or used in the NDA Study have been shared as this is independently determined. Data are shared according the schedule defined in a Collection's Data Expected Tab and/or in accordance with data sharing expectations in the NDA Data Sharing Terms and Conditions. Additionally, Supporting Documentation uploaded to a Collection may be shared independent of whether data are shared, but will only be viewable and accessible if the Collection is Shared.

Collection - Data Expected

The Data Expected tab displays the list of all data that NDA expects to receive in association with the Collection as defined by the contributing researcher, as well as the dates for the expected initial upload of the data, and when it is first expected to be shared, or with the research community. Above the primary table of Data Expected, any publications determined to be relevant to the data within the Collection are also displayed - members of the contributing research group can use these to define NDA Studies, connecting those papers to underlying data in NDA.

The tab is used both as a reference for those accessing shared data, providing information on what is expected and when it will be shared, and as the primary tracking mechanism for contributing projects. It is used by both contributing primary researchers, secondary researchers, and NIH Program and Grants Management staff.

Contributing researchers just getting started on their project will need to define this list by adding all of the items they are collecting under their grant and setting their schedule according to the NDA Data Sharing Regimen. If you fall into this category, you can begin by clicking "Add New Data Expected" and selecting which data structures you will be using, saving the page after each change, or requesting new structures by adding and naming a new item, providing any materials NDA Data Dictionary Curators can use to help define your structure. For more information see the tutorial on creating Data Expected.

If you are a contributing researcher creating this list for the first time, or making changes to the list as your project progress, please note the following:

Although items you add to the list and changes you make are displayed, they are not committed to the system until you Save the entire page using the "Save" button at the bottom of your screen. Please Save after every change to ensure none of your work is lost.
If you attempt to add a new structure, the title you provide must be unique - if another structure exists with the same name your change will fail.
Adding a new structure to this list is the only way to request the creation of a new Data Dictionary definition.

Examining the validity of the use of ratio IQs in psychological assessments	IQ tests are amongst the most used psychological assessments, both in research and clinical settings. For participants who cannot complete IQ tests normed for their age, ratio IQ scores (RIQ) are routinely computed and used as a proxy of IQ, especially in large research databases to avoid missing data points. However, because it has never been scientifically validated, this practice is questionable. In the era of big data, it is important to examine the validity of this widely used practice. In this paper, we use the case of autism to examine the differences between standard full-scale IQ (FSIQ) and RIQ. Data was extracted from four databases in which ages, FSIQ scores and subtests raw scores were available for autistic participants between 2 and 17 years old. The IQ tests included were the MSEL (N=12033), DAS-II early years (N=1270), DAS-II school age (N=2848), WISC-IV (N=471) and WISC-V (N=129). RIQs were computed for each participant as well as the discrepancy (DSC) between RIQ and FSIQ. We performed two linear regressions to respectively assess the effect of FSIQ and of age on the DSC for each IQ test, followed by additional analyses comparing age subgroups as well as FSIQ subgroups on DSC. Participants at the extremes of the FSIQ distribution tended to have a greater DSC than participants with average FSIQ. Furthermore, age significantly predicted the DSC, with RIQ superior to FSIQ for younger participants while the opposite was found for older participants. These results question the validity of this widely used alternative scoring method, especially for individuals at the extremes of the normal distribution, with whom RIQs are most often employed.	217/17423	Secondary Analysis	Shared

Working Title: Differentiating Core Autism Symptomatology	Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction, social-emotional reciprocity, and repetitive behavior or restricted interest (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013). This study extends the existing literature by clarifying the extent to which mental health disorder symptoms differentially converge with autism symptoms related to social communication and restricted and repetitive behavior, as well as the extent to which mental health symptoms are empirically differentiated from the core autism symptom domains. Although there is a well-documented correlation between the severity of core ASD symptoms and the presence of mental health disorder symptoms, such as anxiety and irritability, the nature of this linkage remains poorly understood. In this project, the National Database for Autism Research (NDAR) and Research Domain Criteria Database (RDoCdb) were used to observe continuous symptom measures such as the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) and the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) to examine correlation matrices as well as factor structure models to examine these patterns of association. The SRS “social communication” and “repetitive restricted” subscales were correlated with the CBCL externalizing, internalizing, attention, conduct, aggression, psychosomatic, and withdrawn subscales. We hypothesized that “repetitive and restricted” behaviors would be more correlated with the CBCL scales than would the “social communication” scale. These results were also interpreted according to age and IQ. In conclusion, this study may elucidate ongoing questions about the centrality of mental health symptoms like anxiety to aspects of ASD taxonomy.	1518/11144	Secondary Analysis	Private
The importance of low IQ to early diagnosis of autism	Some individuals can flexibly adapt to life’s changing demands while others, in particular those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), find it challenging. The origin of early individual differences in cognitive abilities, the putative tools with which to navigate novel information in life, including in infants later diagnosed with ASD remains unexplored. Moreover, the role of intelligence quotient (IQ) vis-à-vis core features of autism remains debated. We systematically investigate the contribution of early IQ in future autism outcomes in an extremely large, population-based study of 8,000 newborns, infants, and toddlers from the US between 2 and 68 months with over 15,000 cross-sectional and longitudinal assessments, and for whom autism outcomes are ascertained or ruled out by about 2-4 years. This population is representative of subjects involved in the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded research, mainly on atypical development, in the US. Analyses using predetermined age bins showed that IQ scores are consistently lower in ASD relative to TD at all ages (p<0.001), and IQ significantly correlates with calibrated severity scores (total CSS, as well as non-verbal and verbal CSS) on the ADOS. Note, VIQ is no better than the full-scale IQ to predict ASD cases. These findings raise new, compelling questions about potential atypical brain circuitry affecting performance in both verbal and nonverbal abilities and that precede an ASD diagnosis. This study is the first to establish prospectively that low early IQ is a major feature of ASD in early childhood.	36/6323	Secondary Analysis	Shared
The effect of compensatory mechanisms during and after pregnancy on a child's development	Early childhood involves rapid processes of human growth leading to different trajectories in physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development (Graignic-Philippe et al., 2014). These processes are influenced by a wide variety of factors such as maternal health, environmental stressors, and early childhood experiences. Current literature has shown how exposure to both acute and chronic stress during pregnancy have a pathogenetic effect throughout childhood (Kim & Leventhal, 2015; Rice, et al, 2010), leading to neurotypical or atypical development. Studies have shown how these stressors are linked neurodevelopmental disorders such Autism Spectrum Disorders (Zerbo et al., 2015; Atladóttir et al., 2012) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (Rosenqvist et al., 2019). In recent years, there has been a shift from traditional diagnostic research models to synthesis of different scientific fields to map lifecourse development in order for rapid translation into healthcare practices (Halfon et al., 2014). Whilst there are studies showing links between stress and atypical developmental outcomes, there is still very limited literature on compensatory mechanisms found pre- and post-pregnancy, which illustrate development of protective factors (such as presence of self-regulation, high verbal intelligence, sociability, adept social communication) against atypical developmental outcomes. This study aims to identify and measure the presence of these protective factors that appear to guard against or mitigate the emergence of neurodevelopmental disorders. Therefore, nationwide and longitudinal data are needed in order to accurately create risk models in order to map developmental trajectories.	131/5717	Secondary Analysis	Private
Autism Sensory Research Consortium Cross-lab Integrative Data Analysis	Since 2013, when sensory features were officially added to the diagnostic criteria for autism, research into the sensory manifestations of the condition has increased dramatically. However, the majority of this research has primarily been conducted using small laboratory-based samples of children on the autism spectrum, substantially limiting the hypotheses that can be tested in any one dataset and the generalizability of results to the wider autistic population. The Autism Sensory Research Consortium (ASRC), funded by the Nancy Lurie Marks Family Foundation, represents the first major international collaboration of over a dozen research groups that study sensory functioning in autism. As a major thrust of this collaboration, the ASRC has begun a data sharing initiative, in which all participating labs can contribute existing data from their past and present research studies to a centralized database. These “Big Data” can then be systematically examined using powerful large-sample statistical techniques such as structural equation modeling and item response theory, which will allow researchers to test more complex hypotheses regarding the nature of sensory differences in autism and their relationships with sociodemographic and non-sensory clinical features. Once data from all sites has been pooled, it will be analyzed using a method called integrative data analysis, which is specially designed to derive insights from large and heterogeneous samples. One major advantage of this methodology is the ability to construct and test measurement models of sensory symptoms, determining the most appropriate set of questions for assessing each construct and making sure that the scales do not produce biased comparisons when they are examined across diagnostic groups or subsets of the autistic population. Furthermore, measurement models can be constructed to bridge multiple questionnaires, allowing for the calculation of robust composite scores that can be compared between studies that only administered items from one of the contributing questionnaires. These models can further facilitate pooling of data across studies, allowing us to amass even larger datasets to answer questions about sensory function in the autistic population. Furthermore, moving forward, the composite sensory measures from the integrative data analysis can be employed in other studies, providing investigators in sensory autism research with a suite of reliable and valid behavioral measures that can be used as outcomes in trials of interventions targeting these symptoms. In the long term, this project has the potential to help us better understand the nature of sensory function in persons on the spectrum, as well as how sensory alterations relate to broader features of the condition—specifically, for whom and/or at what point in development sensory features are most predictive of core autism behaviors or other meaningful clinical outcomes such as language acquisition and adaptive behavior. Incorporation of neuroscientific data collected within the ASRC can also possibly shed some light on the neural basis of sensory disruptions in the autistic population. All of this will help to lay a foundation for future work testing the efficacy of candidate interventions aimed at improving sensory function and more distal skills in autistic individuals.	4/2110	Secondary Analysis	Private
Unravelling the Collective Diagnostic Power Behind the Features in the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule	Background: Autism is a group of heterogeneous disorders defined by deficits in social interaction and communication. Typically, diagnosis depends on the results of a behavioural examination called the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS). Unfortunately, administration of the ADOS exam is time-consuming and requires a significant amount of expert intervention, leading to delays in diagnosis and access to early intervention programs. The diagnostic power of each feature in the ADOS exam is currently unknown. Our hypothesis is that certain features could be removed from the exam without a significant reduction in diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity or specificity. Objective: Determine the smallest subset of predictive features in ADOS module-1 (an exam variant for patients with minimal verbal skills). Methodology: ADOS module-1 datasets were acquired from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange and the National Database for Autism Research. The datasets contained 2572 samples with the following labels: autism (1763), autism spectrum (513), and non-autism (296). The datasets were used as input to 4 different cost-sensitive classifiers in Weka (functional trees, LADTree, logistic model trees, and PART). For each classifier, a 10-fold cross validation was preformed and the number of predictive features, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity was recorded. Results & Conclusion: Each classifier resulted in a reduction of the number of ADOS features required for autism diagnosis. The LADtree classifier was able to obtain the largest reduction, utilizing only 10 of 29 ADOS module-1 features (96.8% accuracy, 96.9% sensitivity, and 95.9% specificity). Overall, these results are a step towards a more efficient behavioural exam for autism diagnosis.	147/1832	Secondary Analysis	Shared
Automated Autism Diagnosis using Phenotypic and Genotypic Attributes: Phase I	The ultimate goal of this project is to develop a predictive system that can automate the diagnosis process for autism using phenotypic and genotypic attributes for classification. At this time, only a first phase is being pursued: starting with scores from Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) reports, use data-mining techniques to select the smallest set of the most informative evaluation points that can lead to similar behavioral diagnoses as using all report features. The effort began in March, 2016 after data access to NDAR was granted. This report describes the results from that date through the end of December 2016.	84/1045	Secondary Analysis	Shared
Brain-based sex differences in autism spectrum disorder across the lifespan: A systematic review of structural MRI, fMRI, and DTI findings	Females with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have been long overlooked in neuroscience research, but emerging evidence suggests they show distinct phenotypic trajectories and age-related brain differences. Sex-related biological factors (e.g., hormones, genes) may play a role in ASD etiology and have been shown to influence neurodevelopmental trajectories. Thus, a lifespan approach is warranted to understand brain-based sex differences in ASD. This systematic review on MRI-based sex differences in ASD was conducted to elucidate variations across the lifespan and inform biomarker discovery of ASD in females. We identified articles through two database searches. Fifty studies met criteria and underwent integrative review. We found that regions expressing replicable sex-by-diagnosis differences across studies overlapped with regions showing sex differences in neurotypical (NT) cohorts, in particular regions showing NT male>female volumes. Furthermore, studies investigating age-related brain differences across a broad age-span suggest distinct neurodevelopmental patterns in females with ASD. Qualitative comparison across youth and adult studies also supported this hypothesis. However, many studies collapsed across age, which may mask differences. Furthermore, accumulating evidence supports the female protective effect in ASD, although only one study examined brain circuits implicated in “protection.” When synthesized with the broader literature, brain-based sex differences in ASD may come from various sources, including genetic and endocrine processes involved in brain “masculinization” and “feminization” across early development, puberty, and other lifespan windows of hormonal transition. Furthermore, sex-related biology may interact with peripheral processes, in particular the stress axis and brain arousal system, to produce distinct neurodevelopmental patterns in males and females with ASD. Future research on neuroimaging-based sex differences in ASD would benefit from a lifespan approach in well-controlled and multivariate studies. Possible relationships between behavior, sex hormones, and brain development in ASD remain largely unexamined.	161/759	Secondary Analysis	Shared
Can we improve the precision of the ADOS? An application of Item Response Theory	The current study examined the measurement precision of the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) across the continuum of severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) traits. Modules 3 and 4 of the ADOS assess two domains of ASD (Social Affect and Restrictive and Repetitive Behaviors (RRB)) among verbally fluent adolescents and adults. Currently, scores for these two domains are produced using only a subset of the administered items. Given prior findings demonstrating the poor reliability of the RRB domain, this study examined whether measurement precision of the ASD domains measured by ADOS can be improved by incorporating items that are collected but not scored in the current diagnostic algorithm. Measurement precision is estimated using item response theory (IRT) models, which allows for an examination of reliability across a continuum of ASD domain severity. Results suggest that although the ADOS Module 3 and 4 measuring Social Affect are already very reliable near mean levels of the trait, adding additional items can improve the reliability of scores at moderately low and moderately high levels of Social Affect. However, even with additional items, the ADOS Modules 3 and 4 do not allow for reliable measurement of RRB with adolescents and young adults.	130/423	Secondary Analysis	Private
